(new single/video) Fearout releases fast-paced metal punk song with heavy lyrics!

Helsinki-based Fearout releases new ’Resistenza’ EP as a follow up for their Bleedthrough (Inverse 2021) debut album. ‘Resistenza’ is released on May 5th 2023 by Inverse Records. New EP will expand band’s repertoire to punk rock, but band still combines their rough-edged metal rock with stoner influences. The second single ‘The End of the World’ is a breathtakingly fast-paced metal punk song with heavy lyrics about the state of the world. 

LISTEN The End of the World single: https://push.fm/fl/fearout-the-end 

This one is written after the war had started in spring 2022 and the theme and atmosphere is pretty grim. The song lists atrocities done by humans in 20th century. And since we refuse to learn anything from the past, we keep on repeating until we actually will cause the end of the world. This is probably the fastest song we’ve ever written, says lead vocalist Justus.

(new single/video) Manchester hardcore punks Throwing Stuff have released a new single ‘I Hate This Place’!

Manchester hardcore punks Throwing Stuff have released a new single I Hate This Place ahead of a rare appearance at Manchester Punk Festival on 8 April.

‘I Hate This Place’ is their first release in two years! The single sees Throwing Stuff return to their trademark brand of incendiary hardcore and lyrical piss and vinegar. Capturing the essence of their explosive live shows.

The two-minute track sees Throwing Stuff channel their fury at the racists their vocalist finds himself face-to-face with where he lives and works in south-east Asia.

“The irony isn’t lost on me that I have personally encountered more white, small-minded bigots halfway around the world in Myanmar than I ever have in the UK. There is enough Islamophobia within Myanmar popular discourse without Britain exporting its finest arseholes to teach in the country’s schools,” he said.

I Hate This Place is the first of three singles coming out in 2023, with the subsequent releases staggered over May and June.

‘I Hate This Place’ is streaming everywhere now – https://linktr.ee/throwingstuff

(review) Gužva u 16-ercu – ‘Smrtonosni zadah’

Osijek je od devedesetih na hrvatskoj underground sceni slovio kao grad melodičnog panka iznjedrivši bendove poput mojeg omiljenog Debelog Precjednika, Grupe tvog života, Bud Spencera, a i ovih veterana koji su na sceni jednako kao i Debeljaci iako su im se putevi razlikovali. Gužva u 16-ercu su se vratili novim albumom koji je označio i promjenu u line-upu, ostali su samo vokal i jedan gitarist od stare postave. Isto tako, bend se ponovo vratio na Croatia Records, svojevrstan major label u hrvatskim okvirima. Novi album sadrži trinaest stvari u prepoznatljivom Gužva stilu s nekim hitovima, a i nekim promašajima, barem po mom mišljenju. Stvar koja je odabrana kao single i spot ‘Znak STOP’ je catchy i poslušao sam je milijun puta koliko je refren glupavo simpatičan i ulazi u uho i ostaje tamo dugo nakon slušanja i tjera opet na slušanje te stvari. Jedino mi nije jasna truba na početku, pa nije Gužva Krešo i kisele kiše da im je potrebna truba. No, na albumu ima i pjesama koji su mi nekako više filleri nego hitovi na koje smo navikli od ovog benda, kao ‘Far far’ ili ‘Hund’ koje mi nikako nisu sjele. Mislim, tekstualno su dobri u većini stvari, ali muzikalno nekako šepa to sve skupa. Muto pjeva na svoj prepoznatljiv način i njegov glas je uvijek moguće prepoznati u moru drugih punk vokala s naše scene zato kapa dolje, nije neki virtuoz s rasponom glasa, ali pošteno se trudi hehe. ‘Bez oružja’, stvar koja je također objavljena kao single i spot je dobre strofe, ali fali mi nešto na refrenu da bude himničnija. Ali, ima i dobrih stvari, kao što je na primjer ‘Ko vodu me popije’, brza melodic punk stvar s dobrim zajebantskim tekstom i dobrim bridgeom i refrenom, kao i tercama na back vokalima. Također, meni jedna od dražih je laganija stvar s baladnim početkom i koja se razvije u dramatičnu punk pjesmu ‘Čekaj i Zaboravi’, koja me podsjetila na neke laganije stvari od Šanka kao i Hladnog piva, sve u svemu dobra stvar. Još jedan novitet je usna harmonika u stvari ‘Pivske Mušice’ odu Osijeku i svim proteklim desetljećima, jedna s najljepšim tekstom na albumu. Tu je i pomalo atipično ritmična, skoro ritualna ‘Jedno Tijelo’ koja ima prilično mračnu atmosferu, ali najbolje dolazi na kraju, stvar ‘Arene’ koja je već poprilično stara, ali je hit sam takav. Dakle, miješani su mi osjećaji, kao da album ima više prosječnih ili samo dobrih pjesama, a očekivao sam više od ovog benda. Ali, to sam samo ja. Poslušaj i odluči.
